Now that my clutch has 1000 miles on it I can say that the clutch is fantastic. The pedal pressure has firmed up a bit but not as firm as with the old clutch. Grab point is about 1/3 off the floor. Smoth engaugement and no slipping. I would highly recomend this set up to anyone needing to replace their clutch. Only down side is that if and when you need to replace the disk and pressure plate it would have to be a Valeo as other ones would not be usable. I had 145K miles on the original clutch so I do not believe that I will have to change the clutch again.
